Please see the attached x-ray and esr reports.My doctor says based on x-ray there is some infection and it's mostly TB. She suggested sputum and tst tests.Im worried now that how a 31 year old can get tb who has very gud immune system and no history of any major illness. Please suggest if I'm treated correctly.

Hi have gone through your xray n esr report.Please go through tests advised by her.Pulmonary T.B is most common infection found in India but look at the brighter side ,it is completely curable with Akt(Anti kochs rx).It is droplet spread infecton(spreads through sputum ).Regarding your concern that how you have got it inspite of good immunity,its possible as we are dealing with lot of people in our daily life so difficult to know from whom you have acquired.Also if you are a smoker please discontinue .
